Newgrounds Game Jam 3 begins this Friday morning at 12am and will run until Sunday night at 11:50pm. We will be announcing the individual team themes THURSDAY NIGHT at 9PM EST via live broadcast, so technically you can get started a few hours early. To maximize the team assignment experience, I am programming the IdeaTron, a robot that will literally crap out game ideas based on the nouns, verbs and adjectives submitted in response to AustinBreed's post. Teams are signing up in this thread so join up IF YOU'RE SERIOUS ABOUT IT! Good games should expect good publicity and everyone will have lots of fun.

Check out the Flash MindMeld, a collection of one minute talks by people prominent in the Flash scene! I'm proud to be right there in the top row, although I guess technically I was bested by Brad Borne and his beautiful mustache. ...CONGRATS, BRAD!

This past week we decided to make some "rejected promo spots" for Marvel vs Capcom 3. It was gonna be a collab but those always get out of hand so we said F it. Just2pale worked through the night to join in and I think more are coming.

Gutted that I won't be able to join in and write a story, is this magical machine going to be there for the movie jams too? I have too much college work to be able to do so much in 48 hours.

If it works well we could roll him out for other events down the road.

I'm going somewhere from friday to next tuesday and I won't be able to publish any games as I won't have my laptop D:

eh, this sucks, stuff has to happen all the time for me.

im really sorry for you :(

this picture might cheer you up:

Oh the dragons balls were blazin' As I stepped into his cave.
Then I sliced his fuckin' cockles, With my long and shiney blade!

Uhh....ooookay?
Still, I found out that it requires a fellow user or something, and I don't know any who haven't left NG that are good. Also, I found out that it requires making games rapidly or something. Does that mean that what i'm working on for 7 months now, can't be submitted? If so, then disregard what i said previously, i'm horrible at creating things without planning on it for atleast 3 days if it can be good :|

GET READY TO VOTE FOR CASTLE CRASHERS in the category of Best PS3 Downloadable Game of 2010! Voting starts Feb 22.

I'll be voting for CC but good look beating Scott Pilgrim cause that game was pretty awesome & popular as well.

It seemed like it would have been a great & traditional collab but indeed fuck it some flash is better than no flash and glad to see you guys representing MVC3 with it being such a badass game i especially loved the Iron Man promo. :)

IS1508 just brought it to my attention that today is the ten year anniversary of All Your Base being posted on Newgrounds.

WHAT A DECADE, RIGHT?

Has it really been 10 years already,i don't think i was around when the first All Your Base was released but i was around when the era was around with all the parody flashes of AYB,great times for cheap laughter. :)

On February 24th we will be hosting the Philadelphia Flash Platform AUG here at the office. If you're a local developer and have a serious interest in the talks they've lined up, RSVP on the PFPAUG site and attend!

For the Philadelphia Flash Platform AUG, can only prominent/established developers attend- or can those of us interested in getting into the scene attend as well?
